Modern Miracles and Moving Office
We have witnessed, and are in the middle of a miracle!
White Ant invasion
We have been scrubbing the Comboyne office (and there are those of you who know how much it needed it!!) We have given away the fridge, toaster and microwave and packed up all the paraphernalia belonging to Ged’s brother and his business and are almost free and unfettered . . . we have exchanged on the sale of Ged’s 400 acre block and are now just awaiting settlement so it’s a good feeling for us both to be clearing out the detritus of his bachelor life and more fully embracing the life we have chosen together. Needless to say, I won’t let him keep much!!

I went to an initial Pilates session to see if I liked it. Mainly the woman just talked to me about being pregnant, but then we did eventually get down and do some floor work. I didn’t really understand what I was doing or why, and it didn’t feel like much at the time, but I sure felt the pain in the morning! Still, she didn’t give me a programme to do, or a sense of what I was trying to achieve and I definitely didn’t feel like I’d done any sort of workout (you know me, I come from the ‘no pain, no gain’ Jane Fonda style of exercise) . . . think I’ll stick to yoga, thank you very much, so have been harassing poor Rosie for a pregnancy regime.

We are back into clearing and renovating mode!
New Feline Family Member

Wonderful Wedding

Tick, tick, tick . . .
I left a message for George the other day since he’s been doing his Scarlet Pimpernel trick and impersonating the invisible man. It said: ‘tick, tick, tick, George. That’s the sound of time ticking away in the lead up to 15th March. WHERE ARE YOU? Tick, tick, tick . . . ‘
